The VSYOU Difference

The M.Ed. in Early Childhood program is fully online. Candidates will gain a comprehensive understanding of the knowledge, research, and dominant theories of early childhood education to support effective teaching of young children. The program also builds a strong link to classroom instruction and implementation of knowledge and skills in elementary school settings.

What You'll Learn

Using this knowledge of young children, candidates will develop learning environments which address the intellectual, social, emotional, physical, and cultural needs of young children.
